I painted her

317 48 8
                                    

I painted with the strokes,

Of shadows of the girl,

On the canvas.


I strived to make her alive,

With the contour of real colours,

My creation,

Who would come to life.


And then she would love me,

Like no one ever did before.

But then my brush stopped,

Just before the last stroke of reality on her,

She would also break my heart

If she came alive,


'Cause, then she would be

Like all other living.
